Friday Update - a day late

It has been another rough week for mom.  Things do not seem to be improving, if anything she has seemed worse as nausea has turned into throwing up and heaving.  I will spare you all the specifics but we had a video appointment with her kind and sympathetic Doctor on Tuesday.  She added some meds.  Some worked, some did not.  Thursday we physically saw a Nurse Practitioner who gave mom fluids via IV and better nausea meds.  Mom isn't throwing up but is exhausted, weak and sleepy.  Today we tried to seek help at Urgent Care and was told to take her to the ER.  Mom said "no" thank you, get me a Frosty from Wendy's and lets go home.  She is holding out for her Heart Doctor appointment on Tuesday thinking he will remove more meds and things will improve.  So please keep praying for mom's safety, improved health and that this upcoming week's doctor appointments will be helpful. 

Peter is still waiting to hear when his car will be ready to roll.  I will be grateful when that day arrives.  We do pray it will be fixed well and soon.  There are several other scenarios with Peter that are causing me stress.  So I do appreciate your prayers for wisdom on my part and God's intervention.  Sometimes I try to intervene for God and that causes conflict so I need wisdom to know when to do something and when to wait and watch

I am not going to lie, this wasn't the vacation week I had hoped for.  I did get to spend a day at the lake with a friend where I had a nap in a hammock and learned to Paddle Board and I am so am grateful for that.  I also am grateful I have been off this week to be available to mom and Peter when they have seemed to really need it.  I am to return to work Monday so praying we will see God meet everyone's needs when the time comes.
